CNN's Zakaria: Palestinians have to attack Israel 'to get some kind of attention'

CNN's Fareed Zakaria suggested Tuesday that Palestinians have to attack Israelis to 'get some kind of attention' from the Jewish state.

"Israel is the most powerful nation in the Middle East by far. It is essentially a regional superpower," Zakaria said in a clip flagged by NewsBusters. "So what the Palestinians have to, I mean, they're frustrated, they're trying to get some kind of attention. In my opinion, they often do self-defeating things. These kind of rocket attacks only move Israelis to the right.  "But, ultimately, this thing is only going to be solved if Israel decides that, as a matter of morality, it wants to give rights to Palestinians, that it does not believe that it can be a Jewish democratic state and have these four million people living essentially in conditions where they have no political rights, and Israel, you know, has control over them."
